I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me; they're so few and far between.

There comes a point in your moviegoing life where you look at the screen and then you look at the world and you ask, 'What is going on?' You want the movies to show you the chaos and mess and risk and failure that are normal for a lot of us. Generally, the movies hide all of that.
I've always loved movies, since I was a little kid, but I never wanted to be part of that industry. It always seemed horrifying, the way films were made.
I don't see a lot of films. I'm quite choosy, but there's certain films that stick out.
Somewhere after you have few successful films, there is a fear of losing what you have got. It is very easy in the beginning, as you are a risk taker, have nothing to lose, and there is no perception about you.
I have to admit that I really don't care for horror movies all that much. I think mainly just because I'm a cheap scare.
I care about cinema even though I haven't made many films.
I've seen many, many movies over the years, and there are only a few that suddenly inspire you so much that you want to continue to make films.
It's rare that movies can sort of capture the tone of life; movies always feel like they have to be one thing or another.
I long to make films. I'm dying to be inside the next film. I always hope there will be another film.
And it's one reason why I don't go to a lot of movies - they're more and more dominated by corporate values and fiscal concerns as opposed to cinematic concerns.
